+upgrade:

+    The 'LogrotatePurgeAfterDays'
+    enforces cleaning up of information exceeded its life-time
+    (defaults to a 14 days) in the /var/log/containers directory of
+    bare metal overcloud hosts, including upgrade (from containers)

+security:
+  - |
+    New heat parameters for containerized services 'LogrotateMaxsize',
+    'LogrotateRotationInterval', 'LogrotateRotate' and
+    'LogrotatePurgeAfterDays' allow customizing size/time-based rules
+    for the containerized services logs rotation.
+    The time based rules prevail over all.
